The 10x10G-LC card supports
the following operating modes:
Each operating mode can be
configured using the specific set of cards and client payloads.
Key Features of 100G-LC-C, 100G-ME-C, 100G-CK-C, 100ME-CKC, 10x10G-LC, 200G-CK-LC, CFP-LC, and MR-MXP Cards
describes how each mode can be configured, the supported payloads, and the
valid port pair for a specific operating mode.
MXP-10x10G (10x10G Muxponder)
The 10x10G-LC card can be
configured as a 10x10G muxponder. It can be connected with a 100G-LC-C,
100G-ME-C, 100G-CK-C,
or 100ME-CKC card to support 10-port 10 G
muxponder capabilities. The 100G-LC-C, 100G-ME-C, 100G-CK-C,
, 200G-CK-LC, or 100ME-CKC card can be connected
through the chassis backplane (no client CXP/CPAK required) with the 10x10G-LC
card to provide OTN multiplexing of the 10 G data streams into a single 100 G
DWDM OTU4 wavelength.
The allowed port pairs are 2-3, 4-5, or 6-7.
The 10x10G muxponder mode
supports client signals that are a mix and combination of any
10 Gigabit Ethernet LAN-PHY, OC-192, STM-64, 10 G FC/FICON, 8 G FC/FICON, or
OTU2 data rates.
RGN-10G
(5x10G Regenerator)/TXP-10G (5x10G Transponder)
The 10x10G-LC card works as a
standalone supporting the multitransponder functionality. The 10 Gbps SFP+
ports should be paired to provide the 10 G transponder functionality for each
of the couple of ports. By using the grey optics SFP+ to provide the client
equipment connectivity and DWDM SFP+ on the WDM side, up to five 10 G
transponders are supported by a single 10x10G-LC card. Up to 6 10x10G-LC cards
are supported on the
Cisco
NCS 2006 chassis allowing for 30 10 Gbps transponders in a single shelf.
All the ports can be equipped
with or without the G.709 Digital Wrapper function providing wide flexibility
in terms of the supported services.
As the client and trunk ports
are completely independent, it is also possible to equip both the SFP+ of the
same pair of ports with the DWDM SFP+ thereby allowing them to function as a
WDM regenerator. The CXP pluggable is unused in this configuration.
Each of the SFP+ ports can be
provisioned as a client or trunk. When one port is selected as a trunk, the
other port of the pair is automatically selected as the client port. The
allowed port pairs are 1-2, 3-4, 5-6, 7-8, or 9-10.
For RGN-10G mode, both the
ports are trunk ports.
It is not a constraint to
provision 5 couple of TXP-10G mode or 5 couple of RGN-10G mode. A mix of
TXP-10G and RGN-10G modes can be configured. For example, couple 1-2 and 5-6
can be configured as a TXP-10G mode and the remaining as the RGN-10G mode.

Low
Latency
The 10x10G-LC card can be
configured in the low latency mode. This configuration minimizes the time spent
by the signal to cross the card during the regeneration process. Adjacent SFP
ports must be selected while provisioning this mode although each SFP port
functions as a unidirectional regenerator. Both ports are trunk ports. The
allowed ports are 1-2, 3-4, 5-6, 7-8, or 9-10. A mix of TXP-10G, RGN-10G, and
low latency modes can be configured.
The low latency mode supports
10GE and 10G FC data rates. The same payload must be provisioned on both the
SFP ports involved in this operating mode. GCC cannot be provisioned on the
ports used in the low latency mode. The low latency mode does not support
terminal and facility loopback.
Fanout-10X10G
The 10x10G-LC card can be
configured in the fanout-10x10G mode.The fanout configuration configures the
CXP side as the client and SFP side as the trunk. This configuration functions
as ten independent transponders. The CXP lanes are managed independently and
the payload for each CXP-lane-SPF+ pair is independent from the other pairs.
The fanout configuration
provides the following mapping for the port pairs:
-
CXP lane 2-SFP1
-
CXP lane 3-SFP2
-
CXP lane 4-SFP3
-
CXP lane 5-SFP4
-
CXP lane 6-SFP5
-
CXP lane 7-SFP6
-
CXP lane 8-SFP7
-
CXP lane 9-SFP8
-
CXP lane 10-SFP9
-
CXP lane 11-SFP10
Note |
CXP lane 1 and CXP lane 12
are not supported in this configuration.
|
The fanout configuration
supports the following payload types and mapping modes:
-
10GE (CXP line), transparent
(no mapping), 10GE (SFP)
-
10GE (CXP line), GFP mapping,
OTU2 (SFP)
-
10GE (CXP line), CBR mapping,
OTU2e (SFP)
